Great Himalaya Trail 2026

P4T4 Sherpani Col Base Camp - Advanced Base Camp

The route is on crevassed, glaciated terrain all day. The safest route across the glacier and over Sherpani Col may change year-to-year so an experienced mountaineer in the group is absolutely essential. Full mountaineering gear is required for this leg.

Most groups continue towards West col and do not stay in Advanced Base Camp as it's quite exposed on the glacier.
